Nurse-led home care, Brisbane North

Home maintenance and gardening

A tidy yard and a home in good repair are about more than appearances. Overgrown paths, loose handrails and blocked gutters are real hazards when your balance or strength is not what it was. We help with gardening and small maintenance jobs so your home stays safe and you can keep enjoying it.

We call back within one business day

Keeping you safe at home

While on site, our team keeps an eye out for hazards such as uneven paving, poor outdoor lighting or a wobbly step. If they find something, we let you know, and if equipment or home modifications might help, we can talk about the Assistive Technology and Home Modifications scheme under Support at Home.
